Air Rifles

[Theekillerbee]

You can shoot common tree squirrels, as well as ground squirrels. Depending on where you live, you need to be careful around prairie dogs. They are protected, and have some season rules and regs. You can also shoot all the Eurasian Collared Doves you want...any time...any weapon...no license required. They usually hang around more populated areas though. You can usually find a bunch around farm houses with grain silos and trees. Just be sure you can identify them. Mourning doves are protected and cannot be shot with an air rifle. The common house sparrow and European Starling are also fair game any time. The rules for shooting crows, ravens, and magpies are vague, as the state does not have a crow season, but the feds have a rule that pretty much gives you free reign on them if you say they are in numbers that are a nuisance, or causing damage to your trees/flowers/shrubs/garden. They do not define numbers, so in my book, 1 is a sufficient nuisance!

Go have some fun, and be safe!
